Reviewed by Ashlea Palladino, Associate Theater Critic
for John Garcia's THE COLUMN
Talking an eight-year old who has never seen the show into watching Fiddler on the Roof is like persuading a grown man to watch an episode of iCarly – neither are easy tasks. My Junior Associate Theater Critic complained about our review assignment all the way to Cleburne's Plaza Theatre, and she continued to bemoan the injustice of her situation through the pre-curtain blackout. But then the music started and "Tradition" began. She stared wide-eyed at the massive ensemble of villagers and then turned to me and said, "Mama, I think I'm gonna like it after all".
In a previous review I admitted disappointment with one of Plaza's earlier productions and likened the show in question to Snookie's cheese fries: pretty darned good, but not up to par with Snuffer's cheese fries. I was wondrously excited, and relieved, to now proclaim that my experience with Plaza's Fiddler on the Roof was 100% Snuffer's…what an absolutely delightful evening of theater!
The production team at Plaza had always been incredibly creative and smart about how to best use their in-the-round space, show off their sets and costuming, and stage a large ensemble. What I noted with Fiddler more so than any other production I've seen at PTC was the precision and absolute beauty of the group vocals. Soni Barrus co-directed with her husband Jodie (the parents of PTC co-founder JaceSon P. Barrus), but she also served as Music Director. The harmonies and dynamics during many of the ensemble pieces were a joy to my ears, but the female-only harmony portions of "Sunrise, Sunset" brought forth a lump in my throat to match that joy. Kudos to Mrs. Barrus for bringing out the absolute best I've heard from any PTC ensemble to date.
The costumes by Kara Barnes were reflective of rural Russia in 1905 and they were uncannily similar to those worn by actors in the 1971 film. JaceSon P. Barrus designed the set and, combined with the properties by Tammie Phillips and the incredible mural paintings by Mayre Stewart and Julie Lee, the village of Anatevka was brought to life in downtown Cleburne. Each of the murals depicted a beautifully-recreated scene from the village: a farm, a house, a synagogue, etc. My favorite part of the set was the area near the main stage where a stone chimney and a thatched roof were added onto the mural for a three dimensional effect.
This production didn't boast a live orchestra but the tracks were clear and appropriately balanced – they didn't detract from the beauty of the music in any way. The tracks were perfectly cued, and this was the first time I'd seen at show at PTC where the microphones didn't pop at some point. G. Aaron Siler designed the aforementioned sound, and also designed the lighting scheme along with Cameron Barrus. Their choices for certain scenes – especially during
"Sabbath Prayer" and "Far From the Home I Love" – were fantastic.
Fiddler on the Roof is truly Tevye's story and if the Tevye is not strong, the show isn't going to work. Thankfully Mrs. Barrus cast G. Aaron Siler in this iconic role and he did not disappoint. His mannerisms, singing voice, humor and physicality all blended together to build a lovely, well-rounded Tevye. Tevye's brassy, world-weary wife Golde was played by Samantha Parrish who was positively charming as the other half of this arranged marriage. She was sarcastic and snarky and demanding but she also showed a splendid softness during songs like "Sunrise, Sunset" and "Do You Love Me?"
Mr. Siler and Ms. Parrish were nothing short of gut-busting funny during "Tevye's Dream". Add Mrs. Barrus as Grandma Tzeitel, Caroline
Rivera as Fruma-Sarah and a village of tatter-clothed ghosties to the mix, and the painted Plaza floor turned into The Cleburne Comedy Store.
Tabitha Barrus, who also choreographed, played Tevye and Golde's oldest daughter Tzeitel. Secretly in love with her childhood friend Motel, played by Jerry Downey, Tzeitel convinces her father to allow her to marry without the help of the traditional matchmaker Yente, played by Stacey Greenwalt King. Mr. Downy was appropriately bumbling and somewhat silly but he performed "Miracle of Miracles" fairly well and he seemed to have genuine fun in his interactions with Miss Barrus. Ms. King was harder to believe in her role because of her young age.
I've enjoyed Miss Barrus on stage when I've seen her in previous Plaza shows, but most often as a dancer. Fiddler presented the opportunity for her to show some acting chops with a multi-faceted character and Miss Barrus was equal to the task. She was earnest and cheeky in "Matchmaker, Matchmaker" but then impassioned and firm when she asked for Tevye's approval for her and Motel to marry.
Three of the supporting men stood out amongst the villagers: Auston McIntosh as Fyedka, Andrew Guzman as Perchik, and David Phillips as Mendel. Mr. McIntosh's dancing during the "To Life" scene was very impressive, and I was always able to identify Mr. Guzman's voice when singing in a group. My eye kept returning to Mr. Phillips when he was on stage primarily because he looked every inch the part of a Rabbi's son.
As seems to be the calling of the youngest Barrus children, Mimi Barrus stole the "Chavelah" scene with her precious smile and countenance. Her (dance) partners in crime, Lulu Ashley, Katrina Nicholas as the older Hodel, Taylor O'Toole as the older Chava, and Mimi's sisters Tabitha and Eden, each sprinkled a handful of invisible theater glitter into this scene and made it one of the most memorable of the production. Thank you, ladies.
In some places the show seemed a little rushed and a couple of the best lines were thrown away (i.e. when the Constable confides to Tevye that there is going to be a military demonstration in Anatevka). In a few other places the dialogue seemed to drag, like when Yente comes to visit Golde to tell her about Lazar Wolf's interest in Tzeitel. Notwithstanding the pacing and a few accent and dialect issues here and there (isn't the correct pronunciation luh-KHah-yim?), Fiddler on the Roof was one of the overall best PTC productions to date.
My favorite Plaza production, 2010's A Christmas Carol, introduced live instrumentation that flowed seamlessly with the story. The production team chose to use a talented violinist for this production, Jeanette Vehwig, and as she performed she literally became The Fiddler on the Roof. The humor, honesty and beauty of this story – combined with Plaza's energy and commitment to family-oriented theater – made this drive to Johnson County a no-brainer.

Suggested by the real life of Cordelia Drexel Biddle. "Life's a pretty precious and wonderful thing. But you can't sit down and let it lap around you . . . you have to plunge into it! You have to dive through it! You can't save it, you can't store it up, you can't hoard it in a vault. You've got to feel it, you've got to taste it; you've got to use it. And the more you use, the more you have . . . that's the miracle of it!" So proclaims the wealthy, life-loving Anthony Drexel Biddle. It's September, 1916, and war is raging in Europe. The Biddles, a wealthy family in Philadelphia, are preparing to do their part. Father, an eccentric, keeps alligators in the conservatory as he runs his boxing matches and the Biddle Bible Club. His sons are chomping at the bit to get into uniform and go blast the Kaiser. And Cordy, his daughter, is in love with a most unsuitable young man, whose high society mother would rather die than cut the apron strings. Anthony's wife is trying to ride the waves created by these intense personalities, whom she loves very much. Are all trying to keep together as the tides of war overflow from across the sea.The Biddles are a funny, passionate family, who box their way into each others hearts.

'Fidder' may be Plaza's best
By Paul Gnadt
keenestar@thestargroup.com
The matchmaker got it right.
The decision to cast G. Aaron Siler in the lead role as Tevye in the Plaza Theatre Company's presentation of "Fiddler on the Roof" deserves almost as much credit as Siler.
He gave what must be the most outstanding performance by a leading man in live musical theater this season, certainly in community playhouses in Johnson and Tarrant counties and perhaps the entire Metroplex.
This is "Must see Tevye."
PTC regulars — season tickets were capped when sales reached 1,000 — know Siler as the organization's co-founding producer and are used to seeing him in a variety of supporting roles (Buffalo Bill in "Annie Get Your Gun") and occasional co-lead turns (Burl Sanders in the "Smoke on the Mountain" series).
His behind-the-scenes talents in scenic design, sound design and as overall director earned him Column Awards last year.
But this time, he has the lead and the part fits him perfectly. It's a match. It's Siler's best work in PTC's three-year history, and what makes it stand out even more is this is the most ambitious ensemble singing, choreography and costuming PTC has assembled on stage.
The role of Tevye is double cast — as are the roles of Tevye's wife, Golde, and their three daughters, Tzeitel, Hodel and Chava — with veteran Burl Proctor in the lead role on some nights. But it was Siler on the night I attended.
PTC's "Fiddler" involves 54 individual actors, requiring clever and precise use of every bit of floor space in the 160-seat theatre-in-the-round, plus the first five or six steps of every aisle on most of the production numbers. First produced on Broadway in 1964, "Fiddler" features Jerry Bock's music, Sheldon Harnick's lyrics and Joseph Stein's book, based on the humorous folk stories of a writer who called himself Sholem Aleichem, which translated from the Yiddish means, "Peace be with you."
The setting is Anatevka, a little Jewish village in Tsarist Russia. It's 1905 and Tevye, a poor milkman trying to make a living for his wife and five daughters, is struggling to preserve Jewish traditions in a fast-changing world. The oldest of Tevye's three daughters, Tzeitel, is double cast with Jessica Astorga and, on the night I attended, the getting-better-with-each-production Tabitha Barrus, who, acts, sings, dances and somehow manages to direct the choreography.
As with most PTC presentations, "Fiddler" has a considerable Barrus family presence.
Tabitha's parents, JaceSon and Tina, are the company's co-founders and co-producers — along with Aaron and Milette Siler — her grandparents, Jodie and Soni directed the play, while Soni doubled as music director and found time to play Grandma Tzeitel, and a brother, Cameron, assisted Aaron Siler with light design.
The other sisters, Hodel (Monica Music and Katrina Nicholas) and Chava (Julianna Keller and Taylor O'Toole), are charming and can sing, just like everyone else in the play.
Jerry Downey, fresh off his PTC debut as Ellard in "The Foreigner," is amusingly timid as Motel, the poor tailor who wins Tzeitel's hand. The role of Golde, Tevye's lovingly shrewish wife, is shared by Judy Keller and Samantha Parrish, a PTC first-timer who has an impressive national touring pedigree. And she can sing.
While there are many new faces with speaking parts, there are familiar faces too, such as Andrew Guzman as Perchik, a student from the "outside world" who breaks down "traditions" and persuades one of Tevye's daughters to leave, Jay Cornils as a constable and Auston McIntosh as a Russian soldier who also takes a daughter.
The ensemble production numbers are what I've come to expect from the Plaza, and they deliver right from the start with "Tradition," followed by "To Life," "Sunrise, Sunset" and "Anatevka."
Somewhere in between are two knockout numbers that stand out because they are so different. One is "The Bottle Dance," a Russian folk-type routine where Mark McKee, Mitchell Moore, David Phillips and Devlin Pollock balance half-full wine bottles on their heads while dancing around the stage.
The other is the most ambitious and clever production number I've seen at the PTC, the featured performers of which just might be costume designer Kara Barnes and set designer JaceSon Barrus, whose interpretation of Tevye's Dream is a visual delight.
With all respect to previous Plaza musical ensemble presentations such as "Annie Get Your Gun," and "All Shook Up," this production of "Fiddler" just may be the best. I've seen it at the Muny Opera in St. Louis and at the Bass Performance Hall in Fort Worth with a Broadway touring company, and I enjoyed PTC's version much more. As they say, get your tickets while they last, cause they'll be gone fast, just like Anatevka.
With stage management by Cessany Ford, sound design by G. Aaron Siler (he's everywhere), set design by JaceSon Barrus and excellent wall mural and set painting by Mayre Stewart and Julie Lee, "Fiddler on the Roof" is presented at 7:30 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and 3 p.m. Saturdays through March 10 at the Plaza Theatre, 111 S. Main St., in Cleburne.
Tickets — $15 for adults, $13 for seniors age 65 and older and students, and $12 for children age 12 and under — are on sale 10 a.m. -6 p.m. Monday-Saturday at the Plaza box office or by calling 817-202-0600.

Helping Heroes
Canal & River Trust and Help for Heroes have come together to help injured servicemen and women
Injured servicemen and women are being given the opportunity to re-build their lives, gain qualifications and learn new skills by transforming and restoring historic canals.
Canal & River Trust and Help for Heroes have come together for the first time to deliver an ambitious canal restoration and career recovery programme for wounded, injured or sick servicemen, women and veterans.
Up to 60 veterans, from across the country, will join the Heritage Heroes project and work alongside local canal societies and Canal & River Trust engineers to transform four forgotten canals. The 18-month project will also see 1,000 new volunteers recruited from nearby local communities.
The project, made possible by £500,000 funding from players of People's Postcode Lottery, aims to bring pride and purpose back to heroic veterans while restoring canals, some of which have been left neglected for decades.
Giles Woodhouse, Head of Recovery South at Help for Heroes, said, "Leaving the military or realising that your career choice may no longer be possible can be daunting, especially for those who are living with life-changing injuries and illnesses.
"Working towards a new goal in life through career recovery can be extremely beneficial to an individual's overall wellbeing, often accelerating their personal recovery journey."
Help for Heroes veteran David Teague served as a Sapper with the Royal Engineers before he was medically discharged following a diagnosis of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. At his lowest, he would refuse to leave his house and stopped contact with friends. He now feels ready to start his life again and hopes Heritage Heroes will improve his career prospects.
David said, "Having joined the Army at 16, I feel massively institutionalised and my hope is that Heritage Heroes will help with my transition into civilian life.
"I really want to get back into working as part of a team and build up my confidence again. I'm really excited to take the next step in my new life and I'm grateful for this opportunity."

Q: Efficiently Storing Chat Logs and Displaying Real-Time Activity Graphs At the present time, I wish to do some data mining projects/research regarding chat messages. I have a source that delivers chat messages at the rate of ~10 messages/second throughout the entire day. Every message has the following information, and I would like to store all of the information, for every message:
ID, CHANNEL, DATE, USER, MESSAGE

I want to be able to show real-time statistics that rank the CHANNEL/USER based on how many MESSAGES it has RECEIVED/SENT, respectively, within the following time intervals:
This Minute, This Hour, This Day, This Month, This Year

I also wish to efficiently graph the activity (through MESSAGE counts) for any specific CHANNEL or USER or a combination of both over a specified period of time with a specified level of precision for counting MESSAGES.
Q1: What kind of database setup should I used that would allow for efficiently storing all this information?
Q2: What kind of methodology should I use to display the aforementioned real-time information to multiple clients as efficiently and quickly as possible?
Thanks.

A client of mine who I'll call Elena sat across from me in my office. She slumped in her chair, with her arms crossed, as if she had just suffered a major defeat.
I could see how frustrated she was feeling, as well as afraid. I see this often in my newly-diagnosed clients who are in the process of learning about the demands their chronic condition is going to make on their lives, and what this is going to mean for their daily lives. They have been living a certain way for years, maybe decades. And suddenly they are being told that are at this point doing it all wrong, and being given a list of changes they have to make.
Getting from here to where they need to be can feel like an uphill climb. And their healthcare professionals may be telling them they need to be at the top of that hill today, if not yesterday.
What I have learned is that healthcare professionals don't have a lot of time to spend with their patients. As a result, they have to lay out what needs to happen and leave it to the patient to take responsibility and take action. But healthcare professionals, in their desire to get their patients on the right track as soon as possible, may appear to not be sensitive to what this means for someone who is already trying to cope emotionally with their diagnosis. What may seem logical and absolutely necessary to a physician may just feel overwhelming to a newly-diagnosed patient. And patients are trying to take in so much new information, while they try to come to terms with their diagnosis, that they may not even completely understand what they need to do to meet the goals that have been set for them.
In other words, I don't automatically assume healthcare professionals are being unfair or insensitive. But I do think they are really busy, and don't have a lot of time to explain, teach, and create action plans. They often leave that up to their patients. And for a newly-diagnosed patient like Elena, this can feel like being set up for failure.
If you are newly-diagnosed, are you feeling like Elena? Or, looking back to when you were first diagnosed, did you have a similar experience?
Sit down and draw a map. Your map of the road ahead. Medication regimens. Lifestyle changes. Any self-monitoring you need to do. How often and for what reasons you should be in touch with your doctor. And any other responsibilities your doctor laid at your doorstep. Not sure of how to get to where you need to go? Got some big gaps between here and there? That's fine. The purpose of this exercise is to figure out what you know now, and what you don't know.
Take a deep breath. Sure, you don't have all the answers. That uphill climb may look even steeper than you thought it did. But it's better to know than not to know. Did you identify a lot of gaps in your information? Congratulate yourself. Now, you probably have a sense of what you most need help with.
Do some digging. Your healthcare team may have suggested some information resources for you. Or you can do your own research online, sticking with reputable healthcare websites, like the sites of treatment centers and associations dedicated to your specific condition. And don't forget to check out the Alliance Health site focused on your condition. You might be surprised at what you learn about your condition. And I have to be honest here: Going forward, it's going to be really important to be your own advocate, and that starts with getting educated on your condition and its treatment.
Get started on doing what it's clear you need to do. So, let's say you were diagnosed yesterday. You may have been given a prescription. Okay, follow the directions on the bottle and get started taking your medication. That's a small step but a big one. Your doctor may have talked about a diet change. Exactly what you need to do may not be clear, but chances are you at least have an idea of something you should eat more or less of. That's another small step but an important one. Your doctor may have told you to make other lifestyle changes, more activity, less activity, activity at certain times of the day. You won't know how any lifestyle changes will affect you until you at least stick your toe in the water, you'll quickly have an idea of what makes sense and what needs further clarification. The point here is to take a few steps toward what your doctor has said is the right direction. This will help you to decide what you understand about what you need to do to manage your condition, but also what you don't understand.
Come up with a list of questions. And going to be honest again: You will find that your time with your doctor is going to be a whole lot more productive and a lot less frustrating if you go in with specific questions to ask, rather than wringing your hands in confusion and helplessness. Now that you have done your research, focus on any gaps you might still have. Gaps might include expectations that aren't clear, or any directions you were given that you don't understand how to comply with.
And update your doctor on progress to date. Let your doctor know what you've been doing to follow his/her directions. Be honest. It can help a lot to keep a journal, recording what you are doing to follow your doctor's recommend self-care plan along with any questions or concerns you have. Bring it in and go over it with your doctor.
Get on your own side. The voice of self-criticism just adds more stress to an already stressful time. Over time, you will be an expert in your own self-care. That expertise will develop over time, with two steps forward, maybe a step back here and there. Each setback is an opportunity to learn.
You, your new diagnosis, and the road ahead. Take it one step at a time, starting with where you have the most clarity. Get support on filling in any gaps. Each small step leads to the next step. Small steps add up to big strides!

Hoodoo Blues RPG Review
Posted on June 11, 2010 by spikexan

Hoodoo Blues RPG by Carl Warner and Brian St. Claire-King
Advertising will sometimes try to sell a movie as the funniest of the year . . . during the third week in January. I think that's a fairly short-sighted marketing approach, but maybe people don't remember that eleven more months will doubtlessly have contenders to the self-proclaimed title. Why even bring it up? Because I want to explain my take on this RPG. I'm not going to call this the coolest RPG I read in 2010 . . . yet. This is what I'm considering to be my Eclipse Phase for this year, the game that just grabbed my throat until I tapped out admiration for it on my keyboard. There are other shadowy games just off the horizon that could be more, but right now this is the game I'm watching. The game in question is Hoodoo Blues (Vajra Enterprises, 312 Pages), which takes a look at the rich myth and history of the American South.
The layout of Hoodoo Blues looks great on-screen or printed (I personally will not read 312 pages on a monitor). A mix of whites, blacks, and grays makes the large undertaking a little less Herculean. The upper borders contain a mix of images – gris-gris, candles, and pictures – that are accurate enough, but not particularly interesting. The mesh of images along the outer border is much more intriguing and creative. The sidebars are set apart in a non-distracting way; however, they lack the pizzazz some others possess. Black text with white background means it is the core text; Black text on gray background establishes a sidebar. It's a perfectly fine way to go about things, it's just not the most artistic. There are many asides throughout this book, which I believe to be necessary. Some of the asides are blurbs of the upcoming sections. The authors realized they were dropping a massive amount of information into the minds of would-be game masters and players, so they established many one-page or one paragraph explanations throughout the book. Just reading these will still be a decent undertaking because you'll want to read more; however, this set-up does create the sole possibility of making this a pick-up game (and that's through a sheer stretch of the imagination). I'll talk more about this game in a one-shot versus campaign mode later.
Much of the artwork and photography to this game comes from historical open domain. There are some original pieces (Shoe Fight!), but they are the exception. Art is plentiful throughout the book and many pieces will be familiar. These images, while sometimes graphic (such as the beaten slave on page 148), are perhaps necessary to make this book breathe. The authors are careful to point out their sensitivity to the language, subject matter, and artwork within Hoodoo Blues (page 5). There are many things to get upset about within this RPG; however, it's nothing one wouldn't find in a history book. The pieces created specifically for the text are above-average and help fill in the "creepy" factor that a game seeped in magic and the
supernatural does require.
Introduction (pages 1-5)
We won't dwell here. What readers get out of the introduction is a one-page "in brief" of the game. This details the key factors of the game's setting and system. There is also a brief bit of flash fiction, a quick discussion on the book's language, and two notes about historical, social, religious accuracy and sensitivity to the material within the book. The introduction wastes precious little space before shuffling into . . .
Chapter One: Character Creation (pages 6-116)
Character creation in Hoodoo Blues is a nine-step process that is mostly familiar. Come up with a concept (step one), divide points among attributes (step three), and so forth. A few novel steps do exist such as decide on your character's primary musical tastes (step two). The idea behind the musical step is to aid developing your character. A great deal can be said about a person by their playlist. While the options are a little limited (punk is mentioned whereas rap isn't until much later in the book), there are enough choices for most groups. Besides, it is easy enough to go beyond the book for musical choices. Step six allows the players (who are immortals of one kind or another) to detail what they were primarily motivated by during each decade of their existence. I've seen a few games that use a concept like this; however, it's usually something devoted players opt to do on their own.
There are eight Attributes which are given scores from a pool of 80 points. A 1 is feeble while a 20 marks the other end of the spectrum. Other factors such as Class, Advantages, and Disadvantages may affect those totals. Skills come from a pool of 100 points and contain enough options to guarantee a variety of characters with differing skill sets. Advantages cannot be gained until there are Disadvantages to pay for them. This is mostly familiar ground with some interesting flavor mixed into it. The Classes available in the game are one of those differences. Vampires are not one of the immortal races available. No, these creatures are Hags, Voodoo practitioners, the deal-making Crossroaders, and more.
One final note on character creation goes to the treatment of XP. Gaining and spending XP work as usual in games; however, Hoodoo Blues also offers ways to lose XP. Failing horribly at goals, making the world a worse place, or splitting up the party for reasons that hurts the party are the three ways detailed to lose XP (also players cannot go into negative scores on their XP). First, I love the idea of losing XP, but I'm not enthralled with the three means of doing so. For me, splitting up the party usually affects the game for everyone involved. People feel left out. Attentions waiver and chaos emerges. I am for this application of losing XP and would have liked to see more reasons like this detailed. The other two generally are learning experiences on their own and shouldn't take away from one XP. Getting defeated actually works as a good motivator.
Chapter Two: Organic Rule Components (pages 117-140, 141-144 are dedicated to a flashback table)
The nuts and bolts of this system is right here: Roll attribute + d20 vs. difficulty.
From this simple mechanic, the authors are free to get much more creative. The first bit of inspiration is "chance rolls" versus "deliberate rolls." Before I go into them, let's talk about our good friend the botch.
Botches are those funny little guys at the table who can really make players squirm, especially in the middle of a fight. Botches are sometimes strange, though; they show up at odd times when you really don't expect them – times when players would have warded them off successfully. Well, these two rolls deal with these kinds of botches. "Chance rolls" are always made at sudden instances, such as a fight, the sudden need to protect a computer from a hacker, and so forth. These rolls have automatic failures when a one is rolled and an automatic success when a twenty is rolled. "Deliberate rolls" are rolls made for a controlled minor surgery, hacking into someone's computer, and so on. These rolls never have automatic failures or successes (once the two characters on both end of the computer/hacker equation start working against each other, it becomes an opposed action).
Skills have ranks in the game (one through six), but offer bonuses. A skill that a person could attempt to mimic by attribute alone (brawling) offers a +3 bonus per level. A skill that cannot be attempted by someone without that knowledge grants a +4 bonus. These bonuses are required to make the impossible "difficulty 40″ level less impossible. The remainder of this chapter focuses on detailing Attributes and skills, how to handle combat, and Flashback play (immortals have long stories to tell).
Chapter Three: The South (pages 145-242)
Readers are treated to just under a hundred pages of Southern American history, society, and more. The authors managed to offer a detailed, meaningful history while keeping it interesting enough for a game book. My love for history may have created a little bias for me; nevertheless, I feel like the end result is successful.
Chapter Four: Adventures (pages 243-282)
This chapter is a little oddly named as it is also where game masters and nosy players will find monster stats (and there are so many odd additions within this book), discussion of the "thin places," and, oh yeah, two adventures. The "thin places" are an interesting concept involving "almost" time travel. It works like this: sometimes something important happens that just sticks to the place almost like a haunting. Years and years afterward, there exists the possibility that people can fall into that moment again as it is always occurring.
Perhaps the player falls into a "thin place" where an old enemy doesn't have their powers yet. They opt to kill them on the spot. Once they return, nothing has changed. If the player had gone back to get information from that version of their enemy, they could bring that back with them (though the enemy would never remember giving it to them). The entities are fully functional versions of those people up to and at that particular moment the "thin place" is created. Could be quite useful. The threats in the book are a great mix of new and old (much like the whole book). Heck, even the lowly mermaid proves a little dangerous in this book!
Appendices (pages 283-308)
This section is full of cheat sheets for Southern terms and slang, game terms, and game master or player aids. These twenty-plus pages are probably pound-for-pound the most needed within the book. I like the look of the character sheet. It's spacious for all the notes you'll have to make about your burnt-out immortal.
Advertisements (pages 309-312)
My scores for Hoodoo Blues are:
Layout: Three out of Five Dice (Strong choices for such a massive book)
Artwork: Four out of Five Dice (Excellent usage of Open Domain materials)
Writing: Five out of Five Dice (I was sucker-punched by the coolness of this book)
Overall: Five out of Five Dice (Maybe the math doesn't add up, but the writing pulls up the average)

Church reveals expansion plans
PUBLISHED: 14:00 17 March 2019
Steamcross Community Church in Claverham. Picture: MARK ATHERTON
A 'dilapidated' part of a village church faces being torn down and replaced with a modern equivalent.
Steamcross Community Church, in Claverham, wants a larger meeting room to help it grow after two groups merged at the start of the year.
Claverham Free Church, which meets at the Claverham Road building that may be altered, amalgamated with River of Life Church, which used to meet at Yatton Junior School, on January 1.
Church leaders want to remove the timber extension which is in poor repair as it was only ever meant to be a temporary solution, yet has stood for more than five decades.
A church spokesman, in the planning application to North Somerset Council, said: "As the churches have amalgamated, increasing the numbers of people in the congregation and those wishing to use the facilities on a regular basis, it has created a shortage of much-needed space.
"We therefore wish to replace the dilapidated timber extension which was built as a temporary measure more than 50 years ago, which is no longer fit for use, with a new purpose-built larger meeting room."
The church is also hopeful that the development would allow it to host more groups and events in future.
The church's application continues: "We are also looking to update and improve the old kitchen and welfare facilities so Steamcross Community Church is able to provide space for clubs and youth activities for children, coffee mornings, parent and baby groups, parenting sessions and to be able to support a wide variety of community projects as well as the church meetings.
"The building will not overlook or encroach on any neighbouring properties and will enhance the opportunities within the village and provide refurbished facilities with improved access, including for those with additional needs."
The planning application will be debated by Yatton Parish Council in the coming weeks, where it will make a recommendation to North Somerset Council.
The latter will have the final say as to whether the scheme can proceed.

Dordt Diamond
Feature Photo
Tom Sawyer opens on Thursday Oct. 16
October 19, 2014 · by The Diamond Editor	· in Art.	·
Eric Rowe – Staff Writer
From book to script to designers, cast and crew are fleshing and living out the story "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," presented by the Dordt Theatre Arts department. The play, which is based on Mark Twain's 19th century classic by the same name, will open at 8 p.m. October 16 in the TePaske Theatre.
"I am excited for an audience to delight in these characters and their joy as much as I and the cast have throughout this process," director and theatre professor Josiah Wallace said.
Wallace decided to direct "Tom Sawyer" after reading this particular adaptation while preplanning the theatre season last year. Wallace was hooked from the very first scene of the play.
"I was intrigued and drawn to it. Jumping into water and holding a cat are intrinsically theatrical things to do," Wallace said. "It was stylistically what I like to do."
Wallace cited the characterization and playing of multiple roles as aspects that made this play attractive in terms of how the story was told.
The Dordt students in the cast have been attending rehearsals since the second week of school, after auditioning the first week. Five of the ten cast members are freshmen. One of those freshmen is Josh Bootsma, who plays the part of Tom and Huck's friend, Joe Harper.
"It's good to be committed and involved with something right away," Bootsma said. "I am friends with people who I otherwise wouldn't be. It brings all kinds of people together. We are very different personalities, but we can be friends and have a lot of fun together through theatre."
Haley Mulder served as the dramaturg for the production. Over the summer she researched the time period and prepared a binder that was used by designers and actors to ensure that the play is true to the historical setting of 19th century Missouri.
"Topics ranged from fashion to types of soil and trees," Mulder said. "They actually changed the rock color on the set to match the deep red rock from Missouri."
A desire to heighten the tangible nature of the play informed the set design which includes a two story house and a good old fashioned climbing tree.
The set is a unit set which means there will be no backdrop changes. Figuring out how to depict a variety of locations in one space did not end up being the most challenging aspect of the scenic design.
"We used real water and real dirt which isn't typical," Wallace said. "These past few rehearsals, our actors have been walking, sitting and rolling in dirt."
Tickets for Tom Sawyer are $1 for Dordt students with I.D., $5 for non-Dordt students, and $8 for adults.

Jammu Police to provide special transport to women in distress during night hours
Jammu Senior Superintendent of Police Tejinder Singh said the police response to any call will be in maximum 10 minutes and it will be ensured that the caller remains safe till she gets the assistance. Two women constables will accompany the team.
UPDATED: December 7, 2019 22:09 IST

Police in Jammu on Saturday announced its decision to provide special transport facility to women in distress during night hours as part of its efforts to provide them secure atmosphere.
"Any woman in distress can avail the 'Woman Police helpline' vehicle which is going to start initially within the municipal limits of the city from Sunday night," Jammu Senior Superintendent of Police Tejinder Singh told reporters here.
"The crime against women is on the rise in different parts of the country and so keeping this thing in mind, we have taken this important step and decided to club the special helpline numbers (100 & 1091) with Woman Police helpline vehicle to reach out to the women in need," the officer said.
He said any woman who lands in the city during late night hours with nobody coming to pick her up and feeling insecure and uncomfortable in sitting in any vehicle can dial the helpline numbers to avail the free ride to her destination.
"Any woman moving alone or finds the tyre of her vehicle punctured can also seek assistance. The help will reach the caller within 10 minutes," the SSP said, clarifying that the service which will be available from 10 pm to 5 am is only for those women who are in distress and need assistance.
He said all the SHOs and the officers posted in Police Control Room have been sensitized and they will be coordinating the assistance.
"It will be extended to rural areas in the near future," he said. On the crime rate against women in the district, he said a total of 319 cases were registered so far this year.
"While 160 cases are under investigation, the rest of the cases were disposed off," he said, adding "the police are very sensitive towards the issues related to women and the stalkers or those indulging in harassment of women would be dealt with strictly".

Aston Martin will present the most potent production sports car in the marque's 95-year history at the Geneva motor show on 3 March. Based on the hugely successful V8 Vantage, the V12 Vantage will feature a 6.0-litre V12 engine producing 510 bhp (380 kW / 517 PS), and 570 Nm / 420 lb ft) of torque with a top speed of 190 mph (305 km/h) and 0-62 mph (0-100 kp/h) time of 4.2 seconds.
The latest incarnation of the Vantage family has been designed to provide a unique character, appealing to different driver tastes and complementing the other models in the current Aston Martin line-up. The original V12 Vantage concept was unveiled to guests at the opening of the Aston Martin Design Studio in December 2007. Continuing the marque's impressive record of bringing concepts through to production, Aston Martin engineers have brought the V12 Vantage to market in an incredible 12 months.
Aston Martin Chief Executive Officer, Dr Ulrich Bez said: "This is the ultimate performance interpretation of the Vantage range, combining our most agile model with our most powerful engine. It represents the definitive driving package; providing spectacular performance to ensure a dynamically thrilling and everyday useable driving experience.

All tests must be carried out in conjunction with a Doctor's consultation, often they can be done during the consultation. Tests are priced individually, and we currently do over 5000 tests, therefore the doctor cannot always provide a price during the consultation. The booking office can provide accurate pricing from the Pathology Department.
All results will be emailed as soon as they are released and full payment has been received. We offer 10% discount on selected tests if a patient is testing for several tests at once, although this is at the discretion of the Finance Department. Follow up face to face consultation are charged at £50.
We pledge that you are entitled to a 100% money back guarantee if you change your mind about getting your laboratory tests at any point before getting your blood taken. Refunds will be actioned within 48 working hours. We do not charge an administration fee for this.
Once you have had your sample taken you will no longer be entitled to a refund of charges unless your sample is lost or improperly stored resulting in a non or invalid result. In that event you will have a choice of either a refund of the tests involved, or a chance to attend again for another sample to be taken.
As the pathology service is itself provided by Frimley Park Pathology Services and not Park Health Clinics, you agree when you order a test not to hold us liable for any delays or other costs which is beyond our direct control. We don't like delays at all and always work hard to get you your results on time.
The turnaround times vary for each test. The doctor may be able to advise on an estimated turnaround time, however, this is to be used as a guide only. The results are usually only released once all tests become available. If your results are overdue we will consult the Laboratory several times a day to specifically look for your result as well as ask the laboratory managers to chase the results on your behalf.
Once the results are ready and they fall within normal range or you have opted for the express results service, they will be sent straight through to you by email. If you have opted for reported results and interpretation is needed, the doctor will provide comment via email or telephone free of charge, which can take a further 24-48 hours to be processed. If you wish to discuss the results in person there is an additional charge of £50. Or where your results require specialist interpretation you will be informed of this and will need to book a further consultation at a charge of £50. Sometimes you may have to re-attend to have your sample re-taken due to problems with your initial sample, there is no charge for this.
Park Health Clinic Doctors are required by the General Medical Council to operate within the bounds of their knowledge for your safety.

Woman Accused Of Abandoning Two Children At Houston Cellphone Store « Detroit News Watch
HOUSTON (CBS Local) — Two brothers, aged 2 and 4, who were allegedly abandoned by their mother at a Boost Mobile cellphone store in Houston on Wednesday, are safe and in the care of their aunt.
"I just opened the store and the woman came in," store manager Muhammad Naeen told KPRC. "And she said, 'You want the kids?' I said 'No.'"
The woman, now known as "Ashley," said "her husband kicked her out, and last night, her neighbor kicked her out, too. So that's why she was on the street this morning," Naeem told KTRK.
Naeen said the children were tired and crying and the mother didn't know what to do. He said he called the police for help and told the woman to wait, but she left before they arrived 30 to 40 minutes later.
Neighbors at Ashley's apartment complex said she always took care of her boys.
"Every now and then, she watches my son for me, and I wouldn't dare give her my son if I felt like she was an unfit mother," a friend said.
Houston police turned the children over to Family Protective Services, which released the brothers to an aunt late Wednesday.
"They're both happy, clean and show no signs of abuse or neglect," a spokesman said.
In the meantime, police are searching for Ashley. But it's not yet clear what, if any, charges she will face when she's located.

Businesses forced to evaluate sustainability of just in time supply chains
Organisations encouraged to rethink supply chain resilience following numerous disruptions in the last year
by Aoife Morgan - August 4, 2021
Pandemic- and climate-related supply chain disruptions have put pressure on firms to evaluate the sustainability of just in time models, according to Chris Laws, head of UK product and strategy at Dun & Bradstreet.
"There is going to be a big question placed on the balance point between optimised for cost versus optimised for resilience," he says.
Many firms have "squeezed every ounce of efficiency out of their supply chains over the past 10 years" using just in time models but will be faced with a costlier option to build "complete nimbleness and resilience" through spreading the risk with multiply suppliers, adds Laws.
The past year has seen the global supply chain network contend with a myriad of disruptions, creating a hostile environment for global trade that is leading to increased logistics costs and backlogs.
"Logistics bottlenecks have created a new definition of on-hand inventory and just in time," said Albert Douer, director of Darnel Group.
"Today we cannot trust any segment of the logistics chain. From trucks to ocean vessels there is no guarantee of if, and when, our raw materials will arrive.
"For now, just in time only works if your supplier happens to be next door, and even then, you never know if you are only pushing your risk back into your supplier's own logistics chain. Just in time will return, but for years to come, we will probably hold on to part of that extra inventory we built during the pandemic."
Maureen O'Shea, partner at KPMG, says there will be more black swan events forcing companies to understand the interconnectedness of its immediate supply chain and those beyond the company's.
"[Businesses] will need to understand their interconnectedness, mapping out [the supply chain] and understanding its specific risks and the need to make business specific choices of what the mitigations are."
De-risking supply chains
The growing number of vulnerabilities has meant many firms are focused on de-risking supply chains and placing a greater emphasis on digital investment to map out and mitigate risks, says Laws.
According to report by Dun & Bradstreet, 30 percent of senior leaders across the US and UK viewed digital transformation as the most important priority going into 2021,. In the US, 29 percent cited mitigating financial risk was a major concern.
O'Shea says data-led decisions have become even more important as the challenges faced "anywhere in any supply chain is different to the challenge that was there two years ago" and the instincts on how to mitigate the risk are no longer applicable in the current scenarios.
Alongside physical disruptions, a significant challenge for supply chains going forward, which firms will need to mitigate, is that customer demand and behaviour has changed, she says.
"What people consume and how they consume has shifted. The supply chain through the Covid-19 lens doesn't need to get through just Covid-19, [businesses] need to reshape their supply chain to that new pattern of demand."
The supply and operational planning (S&OP) process is more important than over as businesses pivot their business model following shifts in demand, adds O'Shea.
Government intervention alone won't solve supply chain challenges, business advisers warn

As changes are currently being made to annual Mackinac Bridge walk for 2018, area businesses are offering a new option to get guests back to their vehicle.
For the first time buses will not be available to take people back to the vehicles after they walk Mackinac Bridge during Labor Day event.
Star Line Mackinac Island Ferry announced it will be offering ferry rides between Mackinaw City and St Ignace. Each of the ferries holds 500 people and leaves once per hour between 6:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. on Monday, September 3.
This way people will be able to walk the bridge's entire length and still get back to their cars while the bridge is closed.
Ferries will leave from dock no.1 in Mackinac City and dock no.3 in St Ignace. The price is US$20 for adults, US$10 for children 5-12 and free for kids under 5. Parking costs US$10.


The Pan Am Championship had the participation of great figures, three of the five coaches who have won Olympic medals for the American continent in London 2012. Gabriel Taraburelli (Gold), Juan Moreno (2 Bronzes) and Álvaro Vidal (Bronze).
Two of the five coaches, María Espinoza of Mexico and Rosbelis Despaine Sauquet of Cuba (Pedro Gato and Roberto Cárdenas Suárez respectively) were not present in the Pan American Championships in Sucre.
Gabriel Taraburelli of Argentina, Juan Moreno of the United States and Álvaro Vidal of Colombia have undoubtedly been consecrated as the most outstanding Taekwondo Technicals of the American continent, since their athletes obtained medals during the 2012 London Olympic Games.
In London Gabriel Taraburelli's athlete Sebastian Crismanich got a gold medal, while Juan Moreno achieved the bronze medals with Terrence Jennings and Paige McPherson. Meanwhile Álvaro Vidal also won bronze in the hands of Oscar Muñoz.
"The participation of Argentina in the Pan American Championships was very positive, we introduced new competitors who had a very good performance and we also presented part of an experienced group, even though, we did not have the results we expected, we perfomed a high quality of fights against top class representatives and stayed at the same level, losing by the minimum of difference.
"The truth is I'm a bit disappointed because we came for the top spot and stayed with the second, very close to Canada. But I'm also happy that we got five medals in five categories male and female, so it really is a very good balance.
Being in London was very special, as we arrived with two very young competitors, who participated for the first time in an Olympic game, and having taken two bronze medals filled me with happiness.

New research indicates tight meters have won the pay model war for news websites
Download Metered pay models comprise bulk of newspaper website pay models
As the search for effective revenue models for online news sources continues, many websites have kept their content free. Newspapers, however, have erected a variety of pay models, including a variety of metered models.
When newspapers first went online, the generally accepted wisdom of the time was that their content had to be free. It was argued that "free" was necessary to attract eyeballs, and that's what the advertising model required: LOTS of eyeballs.
That unearthed two problems. 1) The eyeballs weren't worth much, less than a tenth of a penny today, and 2) only the three or four largest national newspapers could attract enough of those eyeballs to raise enough pennies to sustain even a portion of the business.
So our industry spent more than a decade stumbling through various experiments. The Dallas Morning News put up a pay wall, later killed it and went back to free, and this past year launched a new pay model. It wasn't the only newspaper to ping pong through the decade.
The conversation became dominated by semantics (subscription or membership?), pricing (wet your finger, stick it in the air, and see which way the wind is blowing?), and sampling (metering, allowing a certain number of free views before asking for money). These all have provided valuable learning experiences.
Research at the Missouri School of Journalism indicates our industry has finally found a pluralism in approach: a metered pay model with 10 or fewer free reads before a reader/viewer would be asked to subscribe, donate or register.
More than 300 news websites were surveyed, 236 of them newspaper websites. Of those 236, nearly three-quarters had a metered model. And of those 170 websites, almost 90 percent limited free views to 10 or fewer.
To find out more, including results for broadcast and digital-only news organizations, click the link on the left to download a pdf of the summary report.
It's refreshing to note that the industry has upped its game in researching and analyzing its opportunities and business options. A few years ago researchers from the University of Missouri worked with The Seattle Times to determine optimum content bundles (print, digital, mobile) and optimum pricing for each bundle. Smarter than a wet finger in the air.
Now The Seattle Times is getting smarter about attracting readers to those bundles. The programmers there are experimenting with algorithms that help 1) widen the funnel of prospective readers, 2) determine which of those readers are most likely to respond positively to an invitation to subscribe or join and 3) at what point(s) in that journey down the funnel would they be most likely to accept such an invitation. This is the kind of data collection and analysis that many industries and companies use, but it's relatively groundbreaking for the news industry. It's briefly mentioned in this story from Kristen Hare at Poynter.

Study backs shared-vehicle benefit findings
Replacing private car travel in urban places with shared vehicles would end congestion, cut CO2 emissions and free public space, according to a study by the International Transport Forum.
The initial results came from Helsinki simulations and a focus group and appear to confirm findings from an earlier study based on Lisbon, Portugal.
In the simulations, motorised road trips (private car, bus and taxi) trips were replaced by different configurations of six-seater shared taxis that provide on-demand door-to-door service and taxi-buses that offer a street corner-to-street corner service booked 30 minutes in advance.
With these shared services, all of today's car journeys in Helsinki Metropolitan Area could be provided with just 4% of the current number of private vehicles.
The best results in terms of reducing emissions and congestion are achieved when all private car trips are replaced with shared rides:
CO2 emissions from cars would fall 34%;
Congestion would be reduced by 37%;
Much of public parking space could be used for other purposes.
Shared mobility also means fewer transfers, less waiting and shorter travel times compared to traditional public transport. The improved quality of the service could attract car users that currently do not use public transport and foster a shift away from individual car travel.
The Helsinki study also confirms initial results for Lisbon that shared mobility improves access to jobs and public services notably for citizens in areas with few such offers.
Shared mobility services thus can play an important role in creating more equitable access to opportunities for citizens.
Finally, the Helsinki study confirms that shared mobility services can be highly effective feeder services for high-capacity public transport services. As in the Lisbon case, scenarios providing first- and last-mile shared services showed that this can increase rail and metro ridership between 15% and 23%.

Christie Brinkley Just Sported A Jaw-Dropping Mini Dress For Her 65th Birthday
I'm sorry, but does she age in reverse?
By Aryelle Siclait
Christie Brinkley celebrated her 65th birthday in a shiny minidress that showed off her amazing legs.
The party was hosted by a skin-tightening procedure company.
She keeps up her youthful looks with a vegetarian diet and well-rounded workout routine.
Supermodel Christie Brinkley, who's, *ahem* almost 65 years old, just posted a reminder that she doesn't age, you know, in case you forgot.
A post shared by Christie Brinkley (@christiebrinkley) on Jan 30, 2019 at 6:12pm PST
Just two days before her milestone birthday on February 2nd, Christie celebrated with friends and family at her birthday bash in a gold sequin minidress and gold pumps. The soirée was hosted by Ultherapy, a non-invasive skin-tightening procedure. (Christie is the face of their new campaign.)
Myrna SuarezGetty Images
"As I approach this milestone birthday, I look back on all that I've learned and the things that have become important to me, not only as a mother and friend, but also as a woman," Christie said in a press release for the campaign. "For me, it's not just about the big birthdays–it's the smaller, more personal moments."
And she was sure to celebrate those, too. In her Instagram caption, she gave a shout out to her daughter Alexa Ray Joel who serenaded her mom with "Happy Birthday."
And even though she's almost 65, Christie probably won't be retiring the many other factors (other than immaculate genes) that she can credit for her youthful looks, including:
"I would say running is my favorite way to sweat, but I'm not really supposed to do that anymore because of injuries," Christie revealed to The Cut. To go easy on her body, she'll walk along the beach and move her arms as if she's swimming, or pick up and carry rocks along the way.
2. Total Gym
Christie told The Cut, she uses the home exercise machine for which she's a spokeswoman—she's even developed some of her own moves according to the machine's website. Even if she's only got seven minutes, she'll use the time to go for a quick run on the machine.
3. Tough coaches
To keep those legs toned, Christie also has drill sergeant spin instructors to thank. "I love spin instructors. Yeah, sometimes you need a little drill sergeant to inspire you and keep you going," she told Women's Health.
4. Taking to the water
Christie told InStyle, about how she keeps fit with her daughter sailor who loves being outside. "We live by the water, so I'll kayak and paddleboard with her too," she explained.
5. A balanced diet
Christie told Women's Health that she thinks a balanced diet is key. "Even on a low-carb diet, you should be able to like, live it up," she added.
6. A vegetarian diet
She's been a vegetarian since she was 13. "I love animals. I do not want to take part in this barbaric system," she revealed to WH. She also raised her kids to keep away from meat, and she's got no regrets about it.

Sitting on top of a mountain, over looking the Silicon Valley, I was standing watching the planes fly by in the warm spring weather. I always enjoy climbing Monte Bello in Cupertino, ending up at Ridge Vineyards, over looking everything below. You are only an hour from San Francisco, but you feel like you are a world away. This was an unusually warm spring day, and the crowds were out picnicking on the hill top and enjoying the views.
On this trip, our illustrious leader Christopher Watkins, brought together a group of wine and food bloggers at one of his quarterly media tastings – which are always eventful. On this visit, Christopher, a musician at his core, had something up his sleeve. There would be no traditionally tasting, as we had come to know it. This time, when we walked in the barn, we found bottles that were brown bagged, hiding the gold within. On the screen in front of us, the history of jazz. In our ears, we had Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, and Thelonious Monk.What was this madness?
Our task was to take each of four wines and pair them with the song that we found most provocatively paired with it. Given that I know zilch about jazz, the only word that came to my mind was skat! Yes, I said skat. That's what I think of when I think of jazz; I was feeling much like the beatnik in Peggy Sue Got Married – you know the line, "Change your destiny Peggy Sue! Marry me and change your destiny!". In my head, I'm thinking, listen to the jazz Thea! Listen to this, and change your destiny!
First up, the 2001 Monte Bello. The smoky rich berry notes were mirrored by bright acid, black pepper and allspice. There was delicious chewy leather, and blackberry spice but it was subdued and not jammy. My pairing was Paul's Pal by Sonny Rollins.
Wine number two, the 2000 Monte Bello, was dark and smoky, and a bit bold. I found fig notes and heavy sediment. There was more fruit coming out as it opened up in the glass, with some excellent earthy background. It was a mysterious wine and So What by Miles Davis was on my mind.
Next, we tasted the 1999 Lytton Springs zinfandel. This older wine hid sticks and stones in the smoky prune background, with cigar box and spice rack. I found a hint of strawberries in balsamic vinegar and cranberry on the end, with lingering thoughts offruit roll up.. The Bemsha Swing from Thelonious Monk seemed the natural pairing.
The final wine in the first flight was the 1997 Geyserville. This was an in your face wine for being so old, and was quite candied with brambly notes. There was quite a bit of dirt and white pepper as well as cedar and sweet cherry. I could see a sarsaparilla at an old west bar in this wine, and even though I was supposed to pick the 4th song, I still chose Paul's Paul (again) as the match.
Are you lost yet? Yeah so was I. I am no student of jazz, and I can't really say i like or don't like it because I just don't have enough exposure. I know I hate Kenny G if that helps? These pairings are strictly on my gut reaction to the music and the wine.
Luckily for us, we were released from the duty of matching music and words, and we were treated to a tasting of the historical vineyard selection series.
Stay tuned for the details on my next post!
